>salem's lot
Good enough, but I agree with King that his best is Pet Semetary.

Brian Keene's work is good enough, just don't apply too much thought to it.

World History

The Better Angels of Our Nature

Name a more violent / disturbing book

That doesn't look like a very violent or disturbing book at all

>>7368015
The man in the moss

It's a recount of all the fucked up things that humans have done to each other. A women being burned alive at the stake, turning to jelly, twitching, screaming, trying to push away the burning embers with broken arms while a town watches kind of stuck with me. Oh and it's not fiction.

right now I'd say his best works are Salem's lot followed by the long walk.

Ira Levin's books. Trust me.

Twilight

Jeff Vandermeer's Annihilation. The prose and characters aren't bad either.
